<h3>Answer: D)  h(x) = (1/4)x</h3>

This is the same as h(x) = x/4

In decimal form, it would be h(x) = 0.25x

=============================================

Explanation:

Inverses undo the original function. The original function tells us to take any input (x) and multiply by 4 to get the output y = f(x) = 4x

To get the inverse, we reverse the operation applied here. The opposite of multiplication is division. So we'll divide by 4 instead of multiply by 4. This is why the answer is x/4 or (1/4)x

-----------

Another approach is to do the following: Replace f(x) with y. Swap x and y. Solve for y

f(x) = 4x

y = 4x

x = 4y

4y = x

y = x/4

h(x) = x/4

We end up with the same result as before.

-----------

Extra info:

For any real number x, the following two equations are true

h( f(x) ) = x

f( h(x) ) = x

On the first part of a journey, Alan drove a distance of x km and his car used 6 litres of fuel.
irinina [24]

Answer:

\frac{600}{x+20}\text{ litres per 100 km}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of litres consumed by car in (x+20) km = 6,

So, number of litres consumed by car in 1 km = \frac{6}{x+20},

Now, number of litres consumed by car in 100 km = 100 × litres consumed by car in 1 km

=100\times \frac{6}{x+20}

=\frac{600}{x+20}

Hence, the rate of fuel used by his car would be \frac{600}{x+20} litres per 100 km.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: 5 2/3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the scale drawing of an airplane is:

1 inch = 3 meters.

Since the length of the actual plane is 17 meters, the length of the plane in the scale drawing will then be:

= 17/3

= 5 2/3 inches

Jennifer is leasing a car from a local auto retailer. The terms of the lease include a 9% interest rate for 36 months with a res
katrin [286]
1. The problem gives the residual value in percentage, and you need it in dollars. So, if the MSRP for the car Jennifer is leasing is $ 17,500, you have:

 57%/100=0.57

 residual value=$17,500*0.57= $9,975

 2. Then, you need to substract the residual value and the lease term, to calculate the value of the car, as below:

 car value=$17,500-$9,975=$7,525

 3. You need to calculate the money factor, which is the interest rate divided by 2400. Then, you have:

 Interest rate=9%/100=0.09

 Money factor=0.09x2400
 Money factor=0.00375

 4. The interest is:

 I=($17,500+$9,975)(0.00375)
 I=$103.03

 5. Therefore, the monthly payment is:

 Monthly payment=(car value/36 months)+Interest
 Monthly payment=($7,525/36)+$103.03
 Monthly payment=$209.02+$103.03
 Monthly payment=$312.06

 What will Jennifer’s monthly lease payment be?

 The answer is: d. $312.06
